Asaba Harumasa, being an Attack unit, needs good stats across the board. You’ll have to spend a lot of time farming Drive Discs while also providing him with power W-Engines and leveling up his abilities. Here’s a detailed list of everything you need to make sure your Asaba Harumasa is ready to fight the toughest bosses with ease.

Best W-Engines For Asaba Harumasa

Rank	Name	Synergy with Harumasa
1	Zanshin Herb Case	This W-Engine is the best one for Harumasa as it provides a lot of stats and DMG bonus. You receive Crit DMG, Crit Rate, and about 40 percent Electric DMG. It synergizes very well with Harumasa’s kit and is worth pulling.
2	Mercato Desire	This is an A-rank W-Engine you get for free from the featured event of version 1.4 and is the second-best one to use for Harumasa. It provides a 20 percent Crit Rate and about 19.2 percent ATK boost to the equipped unit.
3	Brimstone	This is a decent W-Engine for Harumasa as it provides ATK from its secondary stat as well as its passive. It works well with his kit, though being an S-rank W-Engine, it is difficult to get.
4	Cannon Rotor	This is an A-rank W-Engine you can get from the Battle Pass and it provides both Crit Rate and ATK boosts for Harumasa. This is also quite good, but you’ll need to enhance it to level five for maximum damage.

Best Bangboo For Asaba Harumasa

Choosing the right Bangboo is essential to completing your team for Asaba Harumasa. Here are some of the best Bangboos you can go with for optimal performance:

Plugboo	This is the best Bangboo for Harumasa as it not only deals Electric DMG but also helps in Anomaly Build-up. The latter part is enhanced by 100% when there are multiple Electric characters in the team. The Plugboo helps trigger the various parts of Harumasa’s kit and also works with his various team compositions.
Electroboo	Electroboo functions very similar to Plugboo where it deals Electric DMG and helps with Anomaly Build-up. However, you receive only a 60% boost to the latter part with multiple Electric characters in the team when using Electroboo.

Asaba Harumasa Skill Overview And Priority

Harumasa is pretty easy to use, but for a new player, it might be a bit confusing. Here’s a rundown of how you can rotate his skills so that you can deal damage optimally.

Overview

Start by spamming your Basic Attack up to the fifth one. Once the fifth attack is launched, an Electro Quiver is generated on the field.
Harumasa can also use his EX Special Attack to generate Electro Quiver. A maximum of six of them can be generated at a time.
Once there are enough Electro Quivers, you can hold either your Special or Basic ATK and shoot at the enemy to put an X-mark on them.
Remember the X mark will consume the Electro Quivers on the field.
Once an enemy is marked with X, Harumasa is empowered, and he can dash onto the target and deal melee damage to them.

You’ll need to be close to the enemy for the melee attack to activate. If you’re too far, you won’t be able to dash onto the enemy.

Skill Priority

When it comes to Harumasa’s skills, here’s what you should consider leveling:

Core Skill
Dodge
Special Attack
Ultimate

Tips For Playing Asaba Harumasa

Use your Basic ATK and EX Special Attack to spawn Electro Quivers.
Make sure there are Electro Quivers always present on the field.
Use Charged Attack to mark an enemy.
Dash onto them to deal massive damage.
Switch to other characters to ensure enemies are Shocked.
Use Harumasa’s Ultimate whenever necessary for massive nuke damage.

Best Team Compositions For Asaba Harumasa

Harumasa, Yanagi, and Rina in Zenless Zone Zero.

Harumasa works in any team that has Electro characters who can proc the Shock status effect and help with Anomaly Buildup. Here are some of the teams you should consider for Harumasa for both hardcore and free-to-play players.

Premium Team

Character	Role
Asaba Harumasa	Main DPS
Qingyi	Stun
Rina	Support
Bangboo	Plugboo

This is the best team for Harumasa as here you have all the ingredients for an Attack unit. In this team, Harumasa acts as the main DPS, while Qingyi can stun enemies and increase the damage dealt to them significantly. Rina helps with Anomaly build-up while increasing the PEN Ratio for the team.

This team is also very easy to play, and you’ll get massive value if you invest properly in all three units. However, being a premium team, only the most hardcore players will have access to these units. All the units here are Electic characters which helps trigger the passive from the Plugboo.

Anomaly Buildup Team

Character	Role
Asaba Harumasa	Main DPS
Yanagi	Sub-DPS
Rina	Support
Bangboo	Plugboo

This team is also very powerful, though it relies mostly on fast Anomaly build-up which in turn triggers the 28 percent ATK bonus from Harumasa’s Drive Disc. While Yanagi is primarily a DPS, you can use her as a sub-DPS where she jumps onto the field, deals Electric DMG, and then switches to Rina.

Once Rina lands her skills, switch to Harumasa who will now perform his rotations and deal devastating Electric DMG to enemies. On account of the fast Anomaly build-up, enemies always have the Shock status effect on them. This ensures a lot of damage boost for Harumasa and helps with clearing some of the hardest content in the game with ease.

F2P Team

Character	Role
Asaba Harumasa	Main DPS
Anby	Enabler
Nicole	Support
Bangboo	Electroboo

This is a complete free-to-play team for Harumasa and even though it isn’t optimal, you can run it well if you lack premium units. Here, Anby is your primary source of Electric support who can Stun enemies and activate the Additional Ability of his Core Skill passive thereby increasing Harumasa’s damage by 40 percent. Nicole is the support here who can group up enemies and also provide DEF shred.

While the overall damage for this team isn’t as high as some of the others mentioned earlier, you can run it in end-game content provided you have built all of them properly with good Drive Discs and W-Engines.
